This piece is a fragment of a bowl with round base. Colorless transparent glass canes wound with yellow glass have been wound spirally to create a bowl. Another colorless transparent glass cane wound with blue glass have been applied to the rim. The bowls of this size are considered to have been used for drinking cups.
